Monitoring end-user activity has improved visibility into device and application performance
In my opinion, Riverbed can make Alluvio Aternity better by having the same Aternity agent help in security, such as antivirus or EDR, which would be useful, allowing customers to avoid having multiple agents installed on their endpoint machines. Deploying multiple agents can use the processor and utilize memory, so it's better to go with one agent. If one agent can do end-user activity monitoring and act as an EDR, then it would be better for the end-user, allowing easy avoidance of installing multiple agents on their machines.

Regarding Savision Live Maps's AI capabilities, I think accuracy was pretty good, as it gave most of the information that we were able to validate, so it's all good. The advice I would give to others looking into using Savision Live Maps is that I think it's a good product; it's a new thing, and the AI capabilities are obviously improving every day, so I'm looking forward to more improvements and more use cases, and hopefully we can scale it in different departments and for different projects. I gave Savision Live Maps a rating of 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Alluvio Aternity provides predictive analysis and trend analysis for IT teams to evaluate the performance of hardware and applications."
"The dashboard is very effective."
"Aternity's Digital Experience Management Quadrant (DEM-Q) has been a game changer for us. While knowing your own metrics is nice, if you don't know how you compare to others or what the numbers should be, then it doesn't tell you much. This solution puts that into context (if we are doing better than others or worse), which helps us prioritize where we want to focus and do improvements versus that's just how slow it's supposed to be. It's also great in communicating what we are doing and why we're doing it to our IT leadership teams, by saying, while we're pretty far behind others in certain categories, the time and changes for our prioritizations are justified."
"We were able to identify bottlenecks in the application code that we had."
"The data the solution provides is valuable to us; we can see the health of the machines, how they are performing, and what might be causing issues on a particular machine."
"This is the only tool we use to show us what the user is doing."
"The user experience it provides is the most valuable feature for us."
"The product is phenomenal; I really can't speak highly enough about how powerful the product is, and recently they cleared the one major hurdle with the product in that it wasn't very user friendly."
"The dashboards and views available are easy to manage and share, and provide all of the metrics required."
"Savision Live Maps has impacted my organization positively because it helps visually represent nodes and understand dependencies, which helps us understand breakages and issues in production."
"This helps to centralize multiple monitoring solutions and streamline integration into ITSM."
 

Cons

"They have a lot of features built into the product, but it would be nice if they had some additional features that I think a lot of organizations would benefit from."
"Schema is difficult to work with when constructing custom dashboards."
"I would say the reporting capabilities of this product could use room for improvement. The standard reports that are given are not the greatest, and no custom ones can be created; however, I am told that the latest version of Aternity offers this!"
"I can see the location and computer model and I can see a bunch of different attributes. But one thing I can't see is the Internet Explorer version."
"Aternity doesn't currently provide metrics about actual employee experience of all business-critical apps. It's something you have to build out. It's not 'canned' that way and there is a lot of configuration that you have to do to the environment to collect the data you want to collect and that is important to you."
"The other place for improvement, as an on-prem, non-SaaS customer, is that the system administration and management in Aternity are very difficult. They've even told me that most of their support calls come in due to configuration and system administration on their on-prem. Their on-prem solution is not easy to use."
"Aternity does provide performance numbers, the data. However, it doesn't tell you what you can do about it. It just presents the facts. How to interpret the data, and how to draw conclusions from a lot of the data, requires knowledge and experience. That's the part that I would hope Aternity can continue to explore and give us that kind of capability."
"When it comes to what is called creating signatures, it's not easy for a non-coding person for desktop applications. You need to run the recording and you need to have some exposure and knowledge. That is an area where they can improve. For web applications, they have the Web Activity Creator and that's an awesome and easy tool. Anybody can use it and capture the signatures. With the desktop applications it's a little more cumbersome and difficult."
"Perhaps more focus can be done on the CMDB portion and bi-directional communication to the ITSM system, but this is a small portion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price for Alluvio Aternity is favorable."
"It's not a cheap product. There are no two ways about that. If you compare it with a couple of the other solutions operating in the space, it might be on the slightly more expensive side, but it is one of those tools where, once you've got it, you understand the true value. You will get that money back."
"Regarding cost, compared to other solutions, Aternity is pretty low. It's definitely lower-cost than others that we looked at, like Nexthink."
"It is definitely a premium solution; it is not an inexpensive product. We have to ensure that we are getting the most out of it in order to justify the cost. However, it is not cheap, especially when you want to install it on all your endpoints."
"Our management squeezed Aternity pretty hard on the pricing, in my opinion a little too much. I advise negotiating for sure, but I do think it left kind of a sour taste in Aternity’s mouth that we were being so pushy despite the fact that we were only purchasing a small number of licenses."
"It’s a little on the costly side, but if you license intelligently, accounting for your various hosts connecting in through VDI or terminal servers, you can make it well worth your money."
"The pricing is fair."
"Pricing is a bit high. Don't take that as the "be all, end all"."
